I thought this would be easy
I thought you would understand
There's nothing left here for the two of us
Darling, come take my hand
Let's get out, let's just go
Find a better place to call our home
'Cause everyone 'round here looks our way
With a face like we're something wrong
We're not here to take what's yours
Barely just born when we came to these shores
So when you tell me, "Go back home"
Remember, this is the only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
Darling, if we should leave now
Have we not let the bigots win
Are we're really giving in?
After all that we've sacrificed, surely
This ain't the worst we've had to survive
Let's get out, let's just go
Find a better place to call our home
'Cause everyone 'round here looks our way
With a face like we're something wrong
We're not here to take what's yours
Barely just born when we came to these shores
So when you tell me, "Go back home"
Remember, this is the only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
I thought this would be easy
I thought you would understand
There's nothing left here for the two of us
So, darling, come take my hand
And let's get out, let's just go
Find a better place to call our home
'Cause everyone 'round here looks our way
With a face like we're something wrong
We're not here to take what's yours
Barely just born when we came to these shores
So when you tell me, "Go back home"
Remember, this is the only home I've ever known
We're not here to take what's yours
Barely just born when we came to these shores
So when you tell me, "Go back home"
Remember, this is the only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
The only home I've ever known
